Blue Lagoon, Jamaica

WOW!!! In short, the world's finest swimming hole. The Blue Lagoon is several hundred feet wide and 200 feet deep. The water is spectacular; the lagoon is made up of sea water entering from the surface(the surface of the lagoon meets the surface of the Caribbean Sea where the beach is only a few feet deep) and mineral spring water(river water entering through rocks at the bottom and the soil of the lagoon, fed by the Blue Mountains). While swiiming in the Blue Lagoon you will feel streams of warm water at times,and streams of cold water at others. There are parts where the water is shallow enough to walk right in, some with steep slopes and others with slight slopes. You can even see the mineral water bubbling through the ground in some spots, and they evn use it for spa and therapy purposes. They have A nice restaurant on the water front with a dive shop, even renting kayaks and scuba equipment. I would say no Jamaica trip is complete without a trip here..... Its great for all ages and types of people, and its not a very "known" attraction.
